A gentleman should do what he says, let alone a noble man. I didn't expect that he was also a villain who didn't believe what he said. He was so stupid. How could he believe his words? Qi Zi blamed himself deeply: Cuiyi, I'm sorry.
, I was the one who harmed you. If you do anything wrong, how do you want me to repay the favor I owe you?
Xuan Yi, wearing a dragon robe, leaned against the window edge and looked at the sky. He heard a voice behind him and knew that it was Lan Zihui who had come in.
"I bow to the emperor."
"Zi Hui, get up, there is no need for such courtesy between us." Xuan Yi said.
"Your Majesty, I dare not." He stood up and said.
"We grew up together, and I have never treated you as an outsider."
"Thank you, Your Majesty. Your Majesty, are you okay with calling me here?"
"I want you to help me check someone out?" He looked at Lan Zihui and said seriously.
Looking at Xuan Yi's expression, he was thinking that this person must be very important, so he asked: "Who?"
Xuan Yi walked to the table and said, "I don't know your surname. I only know your name, Zhongwen?"
"Are you from Beijing?"
"It's the people around Qi Zi."
"What, the people around Concubine Butterfly?" Lan Zihui asked in surprise.
"Well, go and check for me everything that happened before she entered the palace. I still feel that she doesn't look like a young lady in the palace." Xuan Yi sat and said.
"I obey the order and go do it immediately."
"Thank you for your hard work, go ahead."
Lan Zihui left, and Xuan Yi sat there alone in a daze, thinking: Liang Qizi, what kind of person are you? Is it because of that "Brother Zhong Wen" that you refuse to surrender to me?
Just after dawn, Grandma Wang knocked on the door. Now only Qi Zi lived in the room, and Cui Yi was still in prison. The sound of "dong dong" resounded throughout Hui's apartment, and the palace people in other rooms
They all quietly poked their heads out to watch the fun.
As soon as Qizi opened the door, Grandma Wang taught her a lesson: "Others have already gotten up, but you are delicate and delicate. You are going out at this time. Do you want me to arrange for someone to wait on you?"
Qi Zi ignored her and walked past her. Grandma Wang shouted: "What are you doing?"
"What is the purpose of why you have been muttering here for so long early in the morning?" Qi Zi asked angrily.
"Humph." Grandma Wang said, "First take a basin of water and go to the door of Yunxiu Palace to wait on you."
Qi Zi left Hui's apartment without looking back. Grandma Wang was so angry that she said to herself: "How dare you ignore me, Grandma Wang, you will have a hard time in the future."
In the morning, Yunxiu Palace is full of fresh breath, morning birds are flying and hopping, and the bonsai in the yard are also exhaling their fragrance. There is life everywhere. But there is no smile on the faces of the people here, ever.
They all had gloomy faces, which made people feel that there was nothing festive about them.
Qi Zi and two other palace ladies stood at the door of Concubine Jin. Qi Zi was holding a basin of wash water. One of them had a towel and the other a spittoon. After a long time, the door was opened. Concubine Jin stretched herself and sat down to dress.
On the edge of the stage, he shouted sleepily: "Everyone, come in."
Qi Zi and the other three took the things in. Bizhu took the copper plate from Qi Zi's hand and said, "Give it to me. I'll go down and get breakfast. I'll also bring up the empress's anti-fetal medicine."
Jin Concubine is two months pregnant. Although her belly is flat, a woman's motherly nature allows Jin Concubine to touch him gently from time to time. Now that she has this guarantee, if he is the dragon's son, then she will become the queen of the middle palace based on the price of her son.
Now, in a large harem, she is the only one who has been allowed to conceive a dragon fetus, and her net worth has skyrocketed.
Qi Zi brought the anti-fetal medicine. After taking it, Concubine Jin said, "Why is this medicine so bad to drink?"
Bizhu took the medicine bowl and said: "Your Majesty, good medicine tastes bitter. Only in this way can I ensure that your Majesty will give birth to a prince."
Hearing what Bizhu said, Concubine Jin smiled brightly and felt that she was completely sure that she would give birth to a prince.
"Your Majesty, let's have breakfast." Bizhu said as she handed a plate of steamed dumplings to Concubine Jin.
Concubine Jin smiled and picked up a bun, ate it delicately into her mouth, looked at Qi Zi sideways and said, "Don't think that because you begged the emperor to let me keep the child, I will be grateful to you." Thinking of Qi Zi in Xuan Yi.
The look in his arms made Concubine Jin extremely angry. She didn't understand why the emperor wanted her to stay in his palace.
Qi Zi looked at the woman in front of him with some disappointment. He had no extravagant hope that she would treat him better, but he just felt that everyone in the palace was indeed not a kind person.
Seeing that Qi Zi didn't speak, Concubine Jin put down the tea she was holding and said, "You are such a bitch. You neglected to be a good empress and talked back to the emperor. Wouldn't it be better for someone else in the palace to call you stupid? Or should I say that?
Are you stupid?"
"You don't need to worry about this." Qi Zi said with a cold face. Now her mind is full of Cui Yi's shadow. It has been half a month. There is no movement from Cui Yi at Xuan Yi. How can she not be anxious?
?
Hearing Qi Zi's retort, Jin Fei was a little angry and knocked over the teacup, spilling water all over the floor. She ordered: "Dry this place for me, or else I'll make you look good."
Qi Zi stared at her, helplessly squatting on the ground and wiping the water on the floor with a handkerchief. Concubine Jin spoke again: "Who told you to squat? Kneel down and wipe it clean."
Qi Zi endured his anger and knelt on the ground, his white handkerchief already stained.
"Your Majesty, you don't need to be angry because of her. You are pregnant with a dragon seed, so you can't be angry. I will help you lie down on the brocade couch." Bizhu said with a flattering smile, supporting Jin Fei.
Concubine Jin was supported by Bizhu and lay down on the brocade couch. As soon as she lay down, a young eunuch came from outside and reported: "The four mistresses Libi, Xinbi, Rubin and Shubi have come to see the empress."
"Let them come in." Concubine Jin waved her hand, and the young eunuch led the four masters in.
They all said in unison: "Greetings to Sister Jin Fei."
Concubine Jin straightened up and said, "Sisters, please get up. You don't have to be so polite when you come to my place."
"Sister Xie Jinfei." They said in unison again.
"Sisters, please sit down, Bizhu, and watch the tea."
"Yes, empress." Bizhu walked past Qi Zi who was exploring the ground, with a confident look on her face.
The four concubines sat down, and Concubine Xin spoke first: "Sister, I am so lucky to be pregnant with a dragon for the emperor."
"That's right, sister, my life has been miserable. The emperor hasn't had a concubine to sleep with him for a long time." Concubine Ru said in agreement.
Then Li Bin said: "Well, the emperor hasn't asked me to sleep with him for a long time."
"I see, in this palace, only Sister Jinfei can have this kind of honor and favor. What a blessing." Shubin also said with a smile.
Bizhu brought the tea and handed each cup to the hands of the four concubines. Finally, she handed a cup to Concubine Jin and stood aside with the tray.
Qi Zi didn't need to raise his head. When he heard the conversation between the concubines and the masters there, he knew that these few were not good masters anymore. They were all just followers of the dragon and the phoenix.
"Sisters, what's going on? It's so rare to come here, why do you let me listen to your complaints?" Concubine Jin said with some displeasure.
Ru Bi immediately said with a smile: "Sister misunderstood. You see, you are pregnant with a dragon fetus. My sister is mainly afraid that you will be bored, so I came today mainly to talk to my sister."
"That's right, that's right, sister, you misunderstood." Everyone said in one voice.
Qi Zi finally wiped the floor dry, stood up, and was about to walk out when Concubine Jin called out: "Stop."
"Your Majesty, this slave has wiped the floor clean. Do you have any other instructions?" Qi Zi replied without looking back. She could no longer listen to the conversation of these women.
Concubine Jin looked at the floor and saw that it was dry, but she laughed evilly, poured the tea in the cup on the floor again, and said, "Who said you'd wipe it dry, but it's still wet?"
The four concubines and masters looked at each other, and none of them understood why Concubine Jin was having trouble with a palace man. But upon closer inspection, this palace man had beautiful features and was quiet. Could it be that Concubine Jin was jealous of her beauty?
Qi Zi looked back, suppressed his emotions that were about to explode and asked, "What are you doing, empress?"
"Oh," Concubine Jin glanced at her contemptuously and said, "I accidentally made my hands slippery and wet the floor again."
Bizhu on the side shouted: "You are a piece of wood, why don't you dry it quickly?"
Qi Zi endured her anger and knelt on the ground and wiped it again. Concubine Jin leisurely took the tea that Bizhu had brewed again and took a sip. Seeing that everyone was silent, she knew what they were thinking and said: "Everyone
Sister, do you want to know who this palace lady who cleans the floor is?"
Everyone shook their heads, and Concubine Jin continued: "She is the Butterfly Concubine who entered the palace. Because she offended the emperor, she was punished by the emperor to be a palace servant in this palace."
"What? She is the Butterfly Concubine? I have long heard that she was punished to be a palace attendant in her sister's palace. I didn't expect it to be her?" Ru Bin said in surprise.
The four of them stood up together and stopped around Qi Zi, watching Qi Zi mopping the floor and looking at her up and down, left and right, as if she was curious.
"So, sisters." Concubine Jin said, "You must serve the Emperor well, otherwise you will end up like her."
"Haha, what my sister said is true. My sisters will definitely keep it in mind." Xin Bin said with a smile on her face.
"Sister, let's go for a walk in the imperial garden. Staying here makes me depressed, and having to watch a palace servant mop the floor will disturb my mood." Libi said with a smile.
Concubine Jin glanced at Qi Zi, rolled her eyes and said, "Well, it's a good idea to go for a walk in the Imperial Garden, so that I won't be upset." She got up and got off the brocade couch, and gently smoothed her gauze clothes.
Walking out of the house, everyone left together. A few mocking glances drifted towards Qi Zi, and the house was instantly empty.
